On Nov. 25, 2019, Christine Elliott, Deputy Premier and Minister of Health, was at the University of Toronto Mississauga to announce the Mississauga Ontario Health Team, known as Mississauga Health, as one of the first 24 teams in the province. The aim is to implement a new model of organizing and delivering health care that better connects patients and providers in their communities to improve patient outcomes.
Mississauga Health reinforces existing partnerships while engaging new partners, focusing on care through the continuum from birth to palliative care, and ensuring seamless transitions.
AFHTO members in Mississauga Health are Credit Valley FHT, CarePoint Health and Summerville FHT. We look forward to working with the OHT to ensure primary care remains foundational in the transformation.
